"Different Suståne products were tested as sources of fertility for an outdoor grow of medical marijuana in Michigan during the summer of 2016. Dry bud yield increased by 5 g for every cup of Suståne-based starter fertilizer applied at transplanting (Figure 2).These data suggest that Cannabis growers could optimize their fertility programs using a single application of Suståne’s blended fertilizers or just two to four applications of Suståne’s organic fertilizers."

Industrial Hemp Fertility Demo - 2016

"Two Suståne products were tested as sources of supplemental fertility on an organically managed hemp farm in Kentucky during the summer of 2016. Side dress applications of Suståne 8-2-4 increased transplant growth, survival, and biomass production relative to the other test treatments. The overall shoot size and flower volume were approximately 50% greater in the Suståne treated pots."
